Useful Violin Solos: Violin: Instrumental Album

This collection of some of the most beautiful classical melodies is scored for violin solo with piano/keyboard accompaniment. All the pieces are commonly requested for weddings and useful for other worship situations. These solosare intermediate in difficulty requiring some notes beyond third position.

Arranged For Mandolin. This book contains the first three of J. S. Bach's solo violin Sonatas and Partitas arranged for mandolin. The goal of the material is to make learning these challenging pieces easier. Mandolin tablature is included throughout the book. Mandolinists who have little or no experience reading standard notation will find this to be an essential learning tool. For good reason, there has been widespread interest in learning these pieces in the mandolin community. The pieces were originally written for violin. As a result, Bach's use of string crossing patterns and open-string pedals work brilliantly on the mandolin. Also, as solo works they are a useful addition to anyone's performingrepertoire. Lastly, even if never performed, learning all or some of these is wonderful for building mandolin technique. Violinists often say that if you can play the Bach Solo Sonatas and Partitas you can play anything-the same is certainly true for mandolinists. This book contains the first three of J. S.

A delightful collection of well-loved piano solos (and one song) by Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven; arranged - with equal difficulty parts - for violin, cello and piano. Whether just for pleasure, or a public concert, or as GCSE/A-level ensembles, these pieces will be very useful, with the added bonus of having familiarity in another form. They would also make appealing encores for amateur or professional chamber musicians.
